Sounds like a hardware problem possible with the motherboard of the ipod. Have you tried taking it to the apple store?

It seems like a battery issue.

There might be some errors within the ipod. You may want to have it checked at the Apple store but since you said it was old, I doubt you are still covered by warranty.
